Topic: Orange Dash - B70 or C10?

I have just been reminded of the fact that there was an orange Dash. Does anyone know if this was available in the C10? Or was it only in the B70?
I have become a bit of a Chumby completionist with ambitions to acquire one of every Chumby and related device released to the general public. This has been more challenging because I live in a country where the only Chumby or related devices sold locally were the Classics.
I've included Dashes in this, mainly because I got a black C10 Dash sort of by accident by putting in a low bid on Ebay (this was before Sony pulled the plug). Now that I have a black Dash, I'd aspire to an orange one, but only if it could be Chumbyfied.

It appears that the B70 Dash was the only model in Orange. That model actually had three colors--brown, slate blue and orange. Check out this archived New Egg photo

Yes, the C-10 only came in black, the B7/70 came in a few colors.

We do not support the B7/70 devices, since they're quite a bit different from the C10 and we don't have a hack to support chumby without opening it up and attaching a serial cable to the internal circuitry.

Now that would be interesting! You'd have a small group of B'ers that would be happy.

I have an orange dash just collecting dust.  I hope one day it can be resurrected.
